= hsffeed - Programming FriendFeed from Haskell =
'hsffeed' is a Haskell package providing a binding to
the FriendFeed API -
http://friendfeed.com/api/
http://code.google.com/p/friendfeed-api/wiki/ApiDocumentation
The binding is functionally complete (Nov 2008), letting you write
applications in Haskell that accesses and manipulates content on
FriendFeed and the sites it aggregates.
= Getting started =
For some code samples showing you how to get started using this
API binding, have a look in the examples/ directory.
= Building and installing =
This package is provided in Cabal form, so only thing you need to
do to get going is:
foo% runghc Setup configure
foo% runghc Setup build
foo% runghc Setup install
The package depends on a bunch of other packages though, so you
need to have them built&installed, as well. They are:
* HTTP: http://hackage.haskell.org/cgi-bin/hackage-scripts/package/HTTP
* json: http://hackage.haskell.org/cgi-bin/hackage-scripts/package/json
* utf8-string: http://hackage.haskell.org/cgi-bin/hackage-scripts/package/utf8-string
= Authentication =
When using this API binding to build your own FriendFeed application,
authenticated calls require a user's remote key. This key is available
to logged-in FriendFeed users via http://www.friendfeed.com/remotekey
